Cute place!

Great location near restaurants, had everything needed ( I even cooked thanksgiving). I brought dog. Husband would have preferred a couch to lounge on for football and movies, but it was a small area and they made the most of seating. hot tub was great plus ( nice and clean). Would visit a Blue Beaver property again!

Very nice

Very nice cabin with all the amenities. Not isolated, but quiet. Easy access to everything. Though beds are comfy, the bed frames in both rooms need to be oiled or tightened as they are really squeaky and will wake you up whenever you move.

Great place for some peaceful time alone!

This property was exactly as we expected. It was very nicely kept and clean. It was very relaxing for my husband and me on a quick anniversary trip. Though I could see it working even if we had brought our four young kids since there is an extra bedroom and an included pack and play. It felt like it was out of the way and private, but it was close to everything we needed in town! Would highly recommend it!

Great for a getaway

The cabin was freshly cleaned, in great shape, offered seclusion, and great access to local amenities. Checkin and checkout were a breeze. The outdoor fire pit, hot tub, cornhole and ladder toss offered plenty of relaxing entertainment. We made extensive use of the outdoor propane grill and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking gear. Would definitely recommend.

Cozy family getaway

The scan in was beautiful and clean. The proximity of the cabin to everything was wonderful. We really enjoyed the decor and felt right at home at this cabin. The only thing we had wished was that there was a area to sit in the porch that was covered, so we could sit outside while it rained and not get wet.
